LDM,

Just return from my club flying field and I put 5 flight on Hobbico P-40 Warhawk and I am very happy!!! After getting the feel of her on the ground, I re-fill the tank, did my last check of everything, Start the engine, taxi out to the end of the runway, add power and away she went. Tail came up, just a small touch of up and she was in the air!!! A small amount of up trim and the plane flew hands off!!! Wow this baby fly good!!! The first landing was by the book!! A small bit of power on final, cross the end of the runway, power off and a very smooth landing on both main with the tail still flying. The roll out was 10 to 20 feet on grass. I had a smile on my face from ear to ear!!! The next 4 flight, I took the glove off and push her!! She is so smooth!!! For $20.00 this was a steal. You are right, this is a keeper. Its to bad they don't make them anymore. Thank you again for the info and help!! Have a great weekend of flying!!!
